 While lacking in perks compared to the [[gauntlets of dexterity]] or [[gauntlets of power]], simple leather gloves are still more than sufficient enough to last you through the game and make up part of a possible [[ascension kit]]: any pair of gloves is enough to prevent most [[footrice]]-related deaths (e.g. moving over a footrice corpse while [[blind]] or attacking a live one bare-handed), and allows you to wield footrice corpses as weapons. If you have settled on them as your long-term gloves, you may consider using {{? of|enchant armor}} scrolls on your leather gloves before other armor, since they cannot be destroyed by an unexpected [[polymorph]] (e.g, from a [[polymorph trap]]) and will at worst simply fall off.
